I get the following error when I run this script to open a file dialog.
I've searched the web and news groups for this issue and have not found any
references. I get the same behavior when I run it from Python or Pythonwin.
I'm new to win32... and would appreciate any help I can get.
If I comment out the following line it works fine but I have to navigate to
my initial directory.....
pd.SetOFNInitialDir = r'D:\Documents and Settings\John'
# File Dialog Example
import win32ui
import win32con
pd = win32ui.CreateFileDialog(1)
pd.SetOFNInitialDir = r'D:\Documents and Settings\John'
pd.DoModal()
print 'filename =',pd.GetFileName()
print 'path =', pd.GetPathName()
pd=None
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "filedialog.py", line 4, in ?
pd.SetOFNInitialDir = 'D:\Documents and Settings\Eric'
TypeError: PyCFileDialog has read-only attributes
Also is there a way to open the XP file dialog that has the navigation
shortcuts on the left side of the dialog window?
Thanks
Eric
